I just randomly looked at an Owner's Manual (2016 in this case) for the reindexing procedure and here is what it states:
Hope this helps.
Window Indexing and Express-Up Reset Window indexing may be required if the vehicle battery has been
recharged or disconnected, or is not working. Express-up and the convertible top will not function until the windows are reset.
After battery power is restored, a message displays in the Driver Information Center. See Driver Information Center (DIC) 0 114.
Once power is restored:
1. Close the doors.
2. Start the vehicle.
3. Hold the window switch up to the fully closed position.

From my 2017 manual:
To program the window:
To program the window:
- Close all doors.
- Place the ignition in ACC/ ACCESSORY or ON/RUN.
- Partially open the window to be programmed, then close it and continue to pull the switch briefly after the window has fully closed.
- Press the power window switch until the window is fully open and briefly hold.

When I changed the battery a message to index the windows came up in the speedometer area. I did it, as was mentioned, and everything worked fine after that.
Maybe, disconnect the battery for 10 minutes, again, and see what happens.
Good luck!
